3 tbsp grass-fed gelatin
⅓ cup lemon/lime juice (or substitute orange juice)
3 tbsp raw honey
½ tsp citrus zest (½ teaspoon lemon extract OR 5 drops food grade lemon/orange essential oil. Makes the flavor much better/stronger)
vegetable-based food coloring (optional)

Whisk lemon/lime juice, honey and gelatin in a sauce pan until there are no lumps.
Heat over low heat until it's nice and melty, stirring constantly.
Add food coloring and/or extract if desired - you're almost done now!
Grab an ice cube tray or silicone mold. You can use a basic pan, too, and then just cut into squares or use a cookie cutter after it's set.
Pour in the mixture, then pop in the freezer for 5-10 minutes to firm up. Once they're out of the freezer they will stay firm at room temperature.
Store in the fridge for up to 2 weeks.
Enjoy!
